“It made no difference.”

—Lehigh senior cornerback Ken Pitter, on whether Harvard started Neil Rose or Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback.

“We knew that Fitzy can move the ball. He’s proven it plenty of times before.

No one was thinking, ‘We wish Neil was healthy.’”

—Harvard wide receiver Carl Morris, when asked if the team wished Rose could have played in the final quarter.

“I won’t comment on it except to say [that] after [the play] twelve people grabbed me

and said, ‘what an awful spot’.”

—Harvard coach Tim Murphy, regarding a contorversial fourth quarter spot following a Nick Palazzo rush on fourth-and-1. Harvard was forced to turn the ball over to Lehigh.

“I think Harvard has a very good, efficient offense.

Probably the best we’ve seen all year. Definitely better than Penn.”

—Pitter, who admitted to being very surprised at the efficiency of the Harvard offense.

“We were just trying to beat him as a whole secondary unit.

We rotated corners in because he’s quicker than all our corners.”

—Harvard junior cornerback Mante Dzakuma, on the adjustments Harvard made to counter Lehigh wide receiver Mike Sutton. Sutton finished the game with 11 catches for 204 yards and 1 touchdown.
